...it was only a matter of time before someone posted it...

The denim tie does sound like a nifty idea, but I don't want to have to deal with people who are cheating (i.e. get to wear their jeans all day but end up having shitty wear... I don't know how that would really be possible, but humor me)

Let's see what Warehouse says about it.

thanks Beats... I still have no idea how to embed video

Maybe the winning salaryman can receive a pair of distressed Warehouse jeans. Forget the natural indigo whatevers that the regular contest winner gets. I've almost forgotten what it's like to wear faded jeans.

but, really, how do we judge this?

maybe every salaryman can write an essay about how he/she loves his/her job and how it is a privilege to wear denim for only a couple hours a day.

or, we can have a meeting via conference call and discuss this over a powerpoint. can someone send an invite through lotus notes???

[jubei]

2 pm's no good for me, Miz. Why don't you schedule it through my admin, Sara.

mmm kay?

[Chicken]

Chicken - translation ? What's the busy business man singing ..plus - is that a commercial for some sort of Red Bull energy drink ?

Priceless...

exactly beats. it was a commercial for an energy drink "regain" from many moons ago. the song is about japanese businessmen, who have to struggle to make it through every day. regain helps them to do so.

here's the whole song:

LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROY JENKINNSSSSSSSSSSS!

I have too many TPS reports to do before the weekend

[peteyross]

Won't happen. We are salarymen. If we do make it out of the office, we go straight to the club. We buy the bottles and bring home the models. Can I get a studdering Booyah?

[Joe E Taleo]

joe, you are not a true salaryman if you wear jeans to work.

so, quick answer, no.

I'm a pencil-necked engineer! The only wear I get is on my ass, and I live, breathe and die for the company.

But if this competition is for those who solely wear jeans in the off hours, then yes, I do not qualify.

being a salaryman is not just being a pencil-necked engineer or a geek, although many of us are.

it's taking your commitment to your company to a whole 'nother level.

ask yourself this. have you ever been anally penetrated for the sake of "company morale?"

have you ever dialed into a weekend conference call meeting during coitus?

have you ever eaten your boss's shit with a smile on your face?

i think you need to question your loyalty to your company, joe.

i'm a sarariman, but i'm going to take a 2mo. leave of absence next summer/fall for a long-ass motorcycle trip...

can i still play?

No salaryman job would allow you to do this. You either quit or keep working. Pick one.

[snugglepony]

yeah. there's a "leave of absence policy" in the corporate handbook stating that i could theoretically take a leave of absence... but my boss hasn't approved it yet. the smart money says i get denied.

[mizanation]

yeah, i'd like to see how that would go down at a real company.

snugglepony: "umm, boss, i'd like to take two months off."

boss: "snugglepony, what? why?"

snugglepony: "for, um, a trip."

boss: "huh? you mean a corporate off-site in new delhi to train the off-shore build team?"

snugglepony: "umm, no for a motorcycle trip."

boss: "you have a motorcycle? that's against company policy!"

snugglepony: "but, but, i have vacation days saved up!..."

boss: "shut the fuck up snugglepony! now hand me the crisco. you know what time it is."

snugglepony (*sniffling*): "yes, boss. you are right. (*unzips pants, bends over copier*)"

boss: "LONG LIVE THE COMPANY!!!! HYAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!"

I think the or school was because of something I said in the original thread. It just hit me that I'm done with high school in may and this summer I'm hoping to wear these jeans every day, so that would kind of be cheating.

Good luck to all of you. It's because of the Salarymen that other people even have jobs they can wear jeans to.

[jubei]

I would think it's mostly the other way around... construction workers, custodians, and tons other service people get to wear jeans and without them, we'd have no buildings to work, no food to eat, etc...

I was being some what sarcastic, like "go salarymen, salarymen4life"

fail

[11hr]

Suit and tie every day. I'm new around here and probably more of an askandy kind of guy, but couldn't resist the lure of a contest. I guess I'll be living for the weekend with you lot.

[mizanation]

welcome, brethren. may your fades be corporately approved and equal opportunity.

Get the fuck outta here...you come in this thread and you're not even finished with high school? Someone take this kid out back and beat him PC Load Letter style. Make sure you turn on ghetto boys while you do it.

[deedotceedot]

Haha, I like this thread better than the mainline one.
